In recent years, the crop industry has demonstrated its crucial role in ensuring national food security, job creation, and increasing farmer incomes. It has become a key production area of the agriculture sector, with many competitive products that help increase export value.

Attracting foreign direct investment (FDI) is a key aspect of the southern province of Dong Nai's socio-economic development strategy for 2020-2025, according to the provincial People’s Committee.

The northern province of Hai Duong attracted more than 185 million USD in foreign direct investment (FDI) in the first two months of this year, up 39.8 percent year on year.

The defense industry should apply the latest scientific and technological advances to design and manufacture competitive products that are eligible for export, said Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc.

The opportunities for Vietnam to tap the Australian market are huge if businesses create competitive products up to international standards, said experts.

Hanoi will focus on fully tapping its resources to further promote local tourism with a view to making it a spearhead sector, said Chairman of the municipal People’s Committee Nguyen The Thao.
